Changes in Plasma Membrane Fluidity of Immortal Rodent Cells Induced by Anticancer Drugs Doxorubicin, Aclarubicin and Mitoxantrone

Abstract: The aim of this study was to examine the effect of three structurally different anticancer drugs-the pro-oxidative anthracyclines doxorubicin (DOX) and aclarubicin (ACL), and antioxidative anthraquinone mitoxantrone (MTX) on the fluidity of plasma membrane of immortalized rodent fibroblasts using fluorescence spectroscopy and electron spin resonance (ESR) techniques. Two kinds of fluorescent probes (TMA-DPH and 12-AS) and spin labels (5-DS and methyl-12-DS) were used to monitor fluidity in the hydrophobic core… Show more

“…17 Therefore, one possible result of these changes in membrane fluidity is linked to alterations in the physiological processes of the cell membrane, such as carrier-mediated transport, activity of membranebound enzyme, and membrane fluorescence anisotropy. 16,17 This linkage was also revealed after cells FIGURE 4. After 48 h of SMF exposure: (a) the alkaline phosphatase activity of the SMF-exposed cells was significantly greater than that of the controls (n = 4; *p < 0.05); the greatest difference between the untreated control (b) and SMF-exposed cells (c) was in the extracellular areas from TEM.…”

“…Short 2 h incubations of cells with low doxorubicin concentrations (0.5 and 1 μmol/L) caused an increase in membrane fluidity, while higher drug concentrations (above 5 μmol/L) induced a decrease in membrane fluidity. The most notable changes were observed for 10 and 20 μmol/L DOX concentrations (Jędrzejczak et al 1999). Cells treated with 7, 50 and 100 μmol/L H 2 O 2 were used for comparison.…”

“…Hydrophobic interactions, membrane fluidity, and drug lipophilicity are decisive for efficient intracellular uptake of anticancer drugs (Jedrzejczak et al 1999;Schuldes et al 2001). Additionally, membrane fluidity studies have also been considered as a promising approach for cancer therapy (Ferreira et al 2005).…”
